I am seriously contemplating bangs. I have never had full on bangs. Maybe a bang--the one that sweeps to the side but not the real deal. Usually these things end up ruining my life for a couple of months. Note to self: Everything looks better on J Crew models.

Anyone had a bad experience with bangs? Warn me now.
My biggest fear is I will have a stringy greasy bang that sticks to my forehead all day aka split bang syndrome.
My second biggest fear is the Lloyd (Dumb and Dumber) bang.

I had a fancy shmancy dinner party with some of my favorite people. Do not let the "adult like" table fool you, the food was sub par. Turns out there is more to having a super fab dinner party than pretty plates. Note to self: Practice your cooking skills.

I thought maybe if I distracted my friends with pretty flowers they would not focus on why my pasta noodles were overcooked.

I forgot to post about these chairs earlier. I ordered them from Stack chairs 4 less. They were super cheap and delivered right to my door. They are a great substitute until we get real outdoor furniture and I figured I could save them if we ever need extra seating for a dinner party.

Then there is Hank. He looks so sweet.

Not so much...

A hole.

The more of my interior design books he eats, the more he looks like the dog on One Kings Lane.

I'm not going to be blogging much this week (not that I am blogging much lately anyways). I am really busy at work and any free time I have is going to be spent trying to throw together a birthday bash suitable for a 30 year old. Doug is turning 30 this weekend. I know, he is old. He had originally told me he was going to go fishing. Last week he decided he was going to stay at home. I would be an awful wife if I did not celebrate his 30th birthday party in style. Unfortunately, planning an impromptu party results in a lack of blog posts.

In the meantime here is something that adds a little sparkle to your Monday...

I think if I had a laundry room like this I would not despise doing laundry. I might even offer to do Doug's. (**cough cough** Doug, are you reading this? I said I would do your laundry-- in exchange for wallpaper and a pretty light fixture. )
